I got one small thing that's on my mind
Am I half dead or am I doin' fine
Well I know one thing, I won't be fogotten

I don't got nothin' and I want alot
If money can't buy it I don't wanna talk
Don't wanna be, long forgotten

`Cause I know what I need
(But I don't know how to get it)
It's totally out of reach
Yeah, I know what I need
(But I don't know how to get it)
I wanna stay young, stay young

So, hold on to 18
I know what I like babe
Hold on to 18
They can't see what I see

I don't care about society
I don't care about responsibility
And I don't need no one
Out on my own

I won't grow old and I don't wanna die
You say I'm too young but that's a dirty lie
I wanna be, on my own now

`Cause I know what I need
(But I don't know how to get it)
It's totally out of reach
Yeah, I know what I need
(But I don't know how to get it)
I wanna stay young

So hold on to 18
I know what I like babe
Hold on to 18
They can't see what I see

(Solo)

I've got one small thing that's on my mind
Am I half dead or am I doin' fine
Well I know one thing, I won't be fogotten

I don't got nothin' and I want alot
If money can't buy it I don't wanna talk
Don't wanna be

Hold on to 18 (hold on, to 18)
I know what I like babe
Hold on to 18 (hold on, to 18)
They can't see what I see

Hold on to 18 (hold on, to 18)
I know what I like babe
Hold on to 18 (hold on, to 18)
Hold on to 18
